It's that time of year when paint brands are predicting the colors that will dominate homes in the year ahead. Rather than settling for just one paint shade, Valspar is taking it to the next level by revealing its 2020 Colors of the Year. The 12 nature-inspired shades are all quite practical, and to prove this to shoppers, Valspar decided to photograph the colors in people's homes.

“Earth’s prescription for the chaotic, busy lives we all live is to bring the tranquility of nature and the outdoor world into the home. That’s exactly what we set out to accomplish when forecasting the 2020 Colors of the Year,” says Sue Kim, Valspar Color Marketing Manager at Sherwin-Williams. “Take Mint Whisper, for instance. The crisp shade brings a sense of peace — and nature’s positivity — indoors.”
